Expert Representation for Immigration Court Proceedings

If you or a loved one has been placed in removal (deportation) proceedings, you need legal assistance. Persons in removal proceedings are permitted to have attorneys represent them in Immigration Court to fight to retain lawful immigrant status and avoid deportation, or for those without legal status, seek to obtain lawful status and remain in the country.

The law offices of Tesoroni & LeRoy have over 40 years of experience, and we use that knowledge to help you remain in the United States. We regularly litigate deportation and inadmissibility charges in Immigration Court across New Jersey and surrounding areas.

What Situations Make a Person Subject to Deportation?

Government officials can deem visa or green card applicants “inadmissible,” meaning they are not permitted to enter the country lawfully. A person may also become subject to deportation for actions occurring after admission. People may be inadmissible or subject to removal (deportation) if:

  • They have a criminal or terrorist activity background or develop a record after entry.
  • They attempt to enter or obtain entry with fraudulent documentation or commit immigration-related fraud before or after admission.
  • They violate the terms of their visa admission or enter without inspection by Immigration.
  • They violated immigration laws in the past.
  • They have had a specific immigration application that was denied.

How Can a Deportation Waiver Help?

A person may be admitted to the U.S. or remain in the United States. The Immigration Judge may grant a waiver upon showing extreme hardship to a family member.

Examples of undue hardship may include:

  • A family member who has a severe medical condition.
  • The country of emigration is at war or in a state of political unrest, causing potential danger to the family member.
  • The home country is economically underprivileged, causing potential hardship to the family member.

The Immigration Judge evaluates each hardship and considers its severity. If deportation would result in these hardships, our attorneys can assist in pursuing a deportation waiver in New Jersey and surrounding areas.
